The new documentary film BULLY, directed by Sundance and Emmy-award winning filmmaker Lee Hirsch, brings human scale to this startling statistic, offering an intimate, unflinching look at how bullying has touched five kids and their families. BULLY is a beautifully cinematic, character-driven documentary. At its heart are those with huge stakes in this issue whose stories each represent a different facet of America’s bullying crisis. Filmed over the course of the 2009/2010 school year, BULLY opens a window onto the pained and often endangered lives of bullied kids, revealing a problem that transcends geographic, racial, ethnic and economic borders. It documents the responses of teachers and administrators to aggressive behaviors that defy “kids will be kids” clichés, and it captures a growing movement among parents and youths to change how bullying is handled in schools, in communities and in society as a whole. THE STORIES Alex, 12 For 12-year-old Alex of Sioux City, Iowa, the slurs, curses and threats begin before he even boards the school bus. A sweet-natured kid just starting middle school and wanting more than anything to fit in, Alex assures his worried parents that the kids who taunt and hit him are only “messing with him.” But bullying has trailed Alex thorough life like a shadow, and as his seventh grade year unfolds, the bullying only escalates. Kelby, 16 Since 16-year-old Kelby came out as a lesbian, she and her family have been treated as pariahs in their small town of Tuttle, Oklahoma. The onetime all-star athlete, Kelby has faced an outpouring of hatred from classmates as well as teachers, and has been forced to leave her sports teams by attacks. Refusing her parents’ offers to leave Tuttle, the gutsy teenager is bolstered by her adoring girlfriend and a few staunch friends, resolving to stay in her town and change a few minds. Ja’Meya, 14 In Yazoo County, Mississippi, 14-year-old Ja’Meya was picked on every morning and afternoon of the hour-long bus ride between home and school. On the morning of September 1st, the quiet, unassuming girl had had enough and brandished a loaded handgun she’d taken from her mother’s closet to scare off her tormentors. Incarcerated in a juvenile detention facility and charged with multiple felony counts, Ja’Meya fearfully awaits the outcome of her case, supported by her loving mother. 3 David and Tina Long In October 2009, 17-year-old Tyler Long of Murray County, Georgia, hanged himself after years of abuse at the hands of his classmates and indifference from school officials. As his parents, David and Tina Long, mourn the loss of the son they tried to protect, and demand accountability from the school that failed him so miserably, his death has sparked a war in a community forced to face its bullying demons. Kirk and Laura Smalley Following the bullying-related suicide of their 11 year-old son, Kirk and Laura Smalley are determined to prevent other children from suffering Ty’s fate. As schools around the country prepare for the start of a new academic year, Kirk launches an anti-bullying organization, Stand for the Silent, coordinating a series of vigils that underscore the high stakes of America’s bullying crisis. 4 Q&A WITH LEE HIRSCH Q. What was the impetus behind BULLY? Was there a particular incident that prompted you to make this film, and when did you begin work on it? BULLY is a deeply personal film for me: I was bullied throughout middle school and much of my childhood. In many ways, those experiences and struggles helped shape my worldview and my direction as a filmmaker. Bullying was a subject I wanted very much to explore in a film, and it was always on the list of projects I wanted to develop. But it stayed an abstraction for a long time -- I was too scared to start developing the idea in earnest because it would mean confronting my own demons, and revisiting a painful period of my life. By the early spring of 2009, a documentary about bullying had moved to the forefront of my mind. Then, in April of 2009, came news about two 11-year-old boys -- Carl Joseph Walker Hoover of Massachusetts, and Jaheem Herrera of Georgia – who took their own lives. Both deaths were linked to trauma from chronic bullying. In the wake of those tragedies, I turned my full focus to making this film. I partnered with producer Cynthia Lowen, and we began research and fundraising. Q. Can you discuss the research you did for the film? Were you surprised to learn that the Department of Education estimated the number of bullied kids at over 13 million? Not surprisingly, the Internet was a major source of information and contacts. All over the Internet -- in chat rooms, on websites, on YouTube – kids and families were desperate to find a way to voice their experiences of bullying, harassment and loss. Most of these families shared several things in common: they had been coping with the bullying for years; they had received no support from their school administrators after numerous complaints; and they felt they had nowhere to turn. There were thousands of these postings, filled with frustration and anger. People needed to tell their stories from the frontlines, and that defined our approach to BULLY. We also did extensive academic research for this film, which included working with a number of nationally recognized experts in the field of bullying prevention. We attempted to translate a number of daunting statistics and studies into real-life experiences and potential stories. Through each of the five different stories in the film, we were able to explore different facets of bullying, and to show how universal a problem it is, crossing boundaries of race, class and geography. From that perspective, the figure of 13 million represents youth from every single community in the United States. Q. The film’s central character is Alex, a 12-year-old in his first year of middle school. How did Alex come to take part in the film? Our primary goal – which was also our primary challenge – was to actually capture bullying on camera. Cynthia and I knew the only way to do this was to embed ourselves at a school, preferably for the length of the academic year. 5 In the spring of 2009, while doing research for preproduction, we came across the Workplace Bullying Institute, run by Gary and Ruth Namie. They had recently published the first study on the incidence of workplace bullying, which was funded by the Waitt Institute for Violence Prevention, based in Sioux City, Iowa. Gary Namie introduced us to Cindy Waitt, the executive director of WIVP, who became an executive producer of BULLY. WIVP is very active in the Sioux City School District's violence prevention work, and Cindy introduced us to the Sioux City Superintendent, Dr. Paul Gausman. In July of 2009, we presented our idea for the film to the Sioux City Community School Board, requesting permission to film throughout the district for the 2009/2010 school year. The Board felt it was an important project, and they agreed to be partners in the process. This was a huge leap of faith, and represented a brave commitment to their ongoing bullying prevention programs. The Board was willing to take a tough look at their own community through the camera's lens. They wanted to see where efforts were succeeding, and where there was still work to be done. We decided to spend a year as “flies on the wall” inside East Middle School, in Sioux City. We met Alex before the first day of school. He was just beginning 7th grade, and had been chronically bullied since grade school. In following Alex over the course of the year, during which he was severely bullied, we were able to see not only the huge toll bullying takes on the kids who are bullied, but also on their families. And we witnessed how administrators and schools are profoundly challenged in successfully dealing with bullying. Q. How did the students at East Middle School population react to your presence? Initially we were something of a spectacle, but that quickly faded away to the daily drama of a middle school environment. Q. BULLY documents Alex being bullied on the school bus. Were you surprised that kids would do this in full view of a movie camera? Kids had been bullying Alex for so long, with such impunity, that they had no fear of consequences.

CYBERBULLIES ON CAMPUS Darby Dickerson * I. INTRODUCTION A new challenge facing educators is how to deal with the high-tech incivility that has crept onto our campuses. Technology has changed the way students approach learning, and has spawned new forms of rudeness. Students play computer games, check e-mail, watch DVDs, and participate in chat rooms during class. They answer ringing cell phones and dare to carry on conversations mid-lesson. Dealing with these types of incivilities is difficult enough, but another, more sinister e-culprit-the cyberbully-has also arrived on law school campuses. Cyberbullies exploit technology to control and intimidate others on campus.' They use web sites, blogs, and IMs2 to malign professors and classmates.3 They craft e-mails that are offensive, boorish, and cruel. They blast professors and administrators for grades given and policies passed; and, more often than not, they mix in hateful attacks on our character, motivations, physical attributes, and intellectual abilities.4 They disrupt classes, cause tension on campus, and interfere with our educational mission.

As a cloistered community constructed in the wake of the Holocaust with the sole purpose of self-preservation, the Hasidic populace live under strict religious law and patriarchal control, with its own private school system and emergency services. With ONE OF US, co-directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady had to develop a covert system for shooting in order to infiltrate this reticent community as they documented a trio of Jews whose curiosity led them away from the laws of their faith and into the secular world. Ari, the youngest at 18, discovers the wonders of the internet. He soon realizes just how much of the world has been kept from him, having been raised in religious schools without access to outside information in any form. Luzer, having left years prior, lives in a mobile home in Los Angeles with dreams of breaking into Hollywood and nightmares of religious upbringing. Both men are frank about their sheltered, stifling, abusive experiences growing up. And yet they continue to mourn their loss of purpose—something that all men of faith possess— while their curiosity about the greater world leaves them permanently searching.

    In the Shadow of the Law: the Silence of Workplace Abuse

    IN THE SHADOW OF THE LAW: THE SILENCE OF WORKPLACE ABUSE PhD Candidate: Ms Allison Jean Ballard Supervisors: Professor Patricia Easteal, AM Assistant Professor Bruce Baer Arnold Month and Year of Submission: January 2019 Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Law (941AA) The University of Canberra, Bruce, Australian Capital Territory, Australia Acknowledgements Somewhat uncommonly perhaps, I have been fortunate to have had the same two supervisors throughout my PhD journey. It has been a privilege and a huge pleasure to be guided by, and to learn from my primary supervisor (now Emeritus) Professor Patricia Easteal AM and my secondary supervisor, Assistant Professor Bruce Baer Arnold. Patricia in particular has been my rock. Without Patricia’s amazing kindness, guidance, encouragement, and friendship, I would have ‘thrown in the towel’ and left the PhD boxing ring long ago. Without her support, my well-developed ability to procrastinate (God, help me to finish everything I sta….)1 and to be distracted (God, help me to keep my mind on th– … Look a bird – ing at a time)2 would have reigned supreme. So, my immeasurable thanks to the extraordinary Patricia. Bruce, ever pragmatic and focused on the end game, reminded me to stay focused, helping me to tow the academic line, not take off on too many ‘flights of fancy’, and to check my footnotes! It has been a rollercoaster journey that has spanned three different careers across six different sectors. During this time, I have also started a pro bono virtual legal practice, and established, with my dear friend, and fellow academic, traveller, and shoe-shopper, Doris Bozin, one of the first university-based health-justice legal advice clinics.

From grade schools to colleges, from workplaces to professional sports, stories about bullying and its debilitating and sometimes life-threatening impact have become part of everyday communications. Leading print and digital newspapers have dedicated feature articles on the subject. The Internet, through social media sites and blogs, has posted numerous comments about school and workplace bullying. In July of 2010, Parade magazine, a syndicated periodical distributed with Sunday editions of newspapers across the country, asked its readers if “workplace bullying should be illegal?” More than 90 percent of the respondents said yes. As recent as February 2014, USA Today, a major national publication, published an article entitled, “Hurt Can Go On Even After Bullying Stops.” The article indicated that early intervention is key to stop bullying because the health effects can persist even after bullying stops.

Il ne fait pas de doute que ce phénomène réfère à une forme particulière de harcèlement, que l’on pourrait associer à du harcèlement moral ou psychologique, mais dont la finalité revêt un caractère plus « total » dans la mesure où elle vise l’expulsion de la victime de son milieu de travail. Le mobbing se distingue toutefois d’autres formes de harcèlement en raison de sa dynamique particulière qui engage tant l’organisation que les collègues des victimes. Rumeurs, commentaires désobligeants et atteintes à la réputation sont autant de manifestations du mobbing susceptibles d’affecter gravement le climat de travail dans nos universités, malgré leur caractère insidieux. À la lumière de ces spécificités, ce rapport n’est donc pas une « autre » ressource sur le harcèlement, mais bien un document qui vise à mieux circonscrire le phénomène singulier et peu étudié qu’est le mobbing en milieu académique.

    Support and Mistreatment by Public School Principals As Experienced by Teachers: a Statewide Survey

    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School Certificate for Approving the Dissertation We hereby approve the Dissertation of Diane Sue Burnside Huffman Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy ___________________________________________ Director Dr. Thomas S. Poetter ___________________________________________ Reader Dr. William J. Boone ___________________________________________ Reader Dr. Kathleen Knight Abowitz ___________________________________________ Reader Dr. Andrew M. Saultz ABSTRACT SUPPORT AND MISTREATMENT BY PUBLIC SCHOOL PRINCIPALS AS EXPERIENCED BY TEACHERS: A STATEWIDE SURVEY by Diane Sue Burnside Huffman Skillful teachers are key to developing good schools. Because of this, understanding the school as a workplace is necessary to investigate why teachers leave and what encourages them to stay. The relationship between the principal, as the boss, and the teacher, as the employee, is one under- researched component of the school workplace which is important for developing a broad understanding of teacher turnover. This cross-sectional study uses a definition of principal mistreatment behaviors from the literature in the development of an original mixed method survey and a random sample of teachers from public schools in the State of Ohio to investigate how often principal mistreatment behaviors are experienced by a random sample of teachers in K-12 public schools. Mistreatment behaviors were paired with an opposite principal support behavior using Likert-style response options and were specifically focused on the 2012-2013 school year. Open- ended questions were included which asked for more general experience with principal mistreatment behaviors, effects on the teachers health, opinions about school culture and student bullying, and the effects of principal treatment behaviors on the teachers sense of efficacy and job satisfaction.

    Workplace Bullying and Harassment

    Law and Policy Remedies for Workplace Bullying in Higher Education: An Update and Further Developments in the Law and Policy John Dayton, J.D., Ed. D.* A dark and not so well kept secret lurks the halls of higher education institutions. Even among people who should certainly know better than to tolerate such abuse, personnel misconduct in the form of workplace bullying remains a serious but largely neglected problem.1 A problem so serious it can devastate academic programs and the people in them. If allowed to maraud unchecked, workplace bullies can poison the office culture; shut down progress and productivity; drive off the most promising and productive people; and make the workplace increasingly toxic for everyone who remains in the bully dominated environment.2 A toxic workplace can even turn deadly when stress begins to take its all too predictable toll on victims’ mental and physical health, or interpersonal stress leads to acts of violence.3 Higher education institutions are especially vulnerable to some of the most toxic forms of workplace bullying. When workplace bullies are tenured professors they can become like bullying zombies seemingly invulnerable to efforts to stop them while faculty, staff, students, and even university administrators run for cover apparently unable or unwilling to do anything about the loose-cannons that threaten to sink them all. This article examines the problem of workplace bullying in higher education; reviews possible remedies; and makes suggestions for law and policy reforms to more effectively address this very serious but too often tolerated problem in higher education. * This article is dedicated to the memory of Anne Proffitt Dupre, Co-Director of the Education Law Consortium, Professor of Law, Law Clerk for the U.S.
